Air Lift 1000 HD
Before Operating
Clearance test — Inflate the air springs to 25-35 PSI (1.7-2.4BAR) and make sure
there is at least 1/2” (13mm) clearance from anything that might rub against each air
spring.
Leak test before road test — Inflate the air springs to 25-35 PSI (1.7-2.4BAR) and
use a soapy water solution to check all connections for leaks. All leaks must be
eliminated before the vehicle is road tested.
Heat test — Be sure there is sufficient clearance from heat sources, at least 6”
(152mm) for air springs and air lines. If a heat shield was included in the kit, install it.
If there is no heat shield, but one is required, call Air Lift customer service at
(800) 248-0892.
Road test — The vehicle should be road tested after the preceding tests. Inflate the
air springs so that the vehicle is level. Drive the vehicle 10 miles (16km) and recheck
for clearance, loose fasteners and air leaks.
Operating instructions — If professionally installed, the installer should review the
User Guide with the owner. Be sure to provide the owner with all of the paperwork
that came with the kit.
